OLIVERSHARE (5) has not raced since being well supported on his debut on November 25 over 5f at this track when he finished sixth, beaten 1.5 lengths. Will be better for that run. Leading contender. HOMELAND (3) finished second last time out over 5½f at this track, making it three career minor placings. Yet to miss the top-three in two runs at this course. Sure to prove very tough to beat. GEOFF AND JENNY (7) finished out of the money when fresh from a lay-off two starts back then was beaten 3.5 lengths when fifth over 5½f at this track four weeks ago. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. HE'S POPLAR (2) is back after a break of five months. At the last run before the layoff he finished sixth over 7f at Ballina. Tuned up with a fourth in a recent trial at Grafton. Can kick off with a bold showing.
